Long time no blog...

Aren't the Holidays lovely!
Fun-filled, food-filled, friend and family-filled!
All of which is rather time consuming!
As is moving into a new house and getting settled. I finally seem to be mostly unpacked, and settled into my cute new apartment in South Granville, Vancouver!
But what with that and the holiday madness I haven't had a moment to blog.
I've taken some adorable pictures of my new place and as soon as I load them onto the computer I will promptly be putting together a post about it.
Also working on a video from the Road Trip.
Today I got a hair cut, shortest I've had it in years, about and inch longer than my collor-bone! eek so shocking! But it feels so much healthier and I'm liking the change from that oh-so typical and popular long-long hair look I've had for awhile.
And tonight I've been having fun getting to know my Cable PVR box thing. being able to pause, play and record tv is very cool, not gonna lie!

Posts soon to come about the new decor and the new crop!

My declaration of love to Sassy Gay Friend!

If you haven't watch the Youtube videos 'Sassy Gay Friend'. You haven't lived. Funiest thing ever. Especially if you love Shakespeare as much as I do!

Check out my favorite Video here:


Anyway a few months ago I got to go to his show at the Second City in Hollywood and I got to go up on stage! We discussed my relationship issues with men...
It was amazing and so much fun.


Here's a picture of the first time we met (BFF's at first sight!) :





And another one from tonight when I just happened to run into him outside Upright Citizens Brigade, which is in Franklin Village, just a block from my apartment. My friend Mia and I were so excited and practically screamed at him. He's so hilarious, he should get used to screaming fans asap!


So Sassy Gay Friend I love you! And you totally make me miss my sassy gay friends at home: Stefan, Forbes, Colin and many more that I love so dearly.


We also had an amazing beach and made some killer videos which I will be posting sometime too!

Wine stained lips and strawberry hair.

Even though I told myself I need to stop spending money and going shopping I seemed to have managed to buy a new winter coat and new winter makeup all in the last 24 hrs.
I needed it... ?
Seriously its cold here in Cali in the winter, and its going to be even colder and wet in Vancouver! anyway coat is super cute, black with faux fur, very rockin, very me!
And new mascara was required, and then I happened to also need new liner, so that I might actually wear some. And then I found the perfect lip liner to go with the Lanvin lipstick I got at H&M. So my winter makeup look that I'm quite excited to wear (managing I have the energy and time to put it on) will include perfectly lined mini cat eyes, and magenta lips!
Not much else to report.
Tons of packing has been underway and tomorrow Mia arrives for the Epic Journey!
I also went to see Burlesque last night, it was quite fabulous! Great makeup, and costumes were fantastic and the story/acting wasn't that bad, kinda corny but in a good way. Full to the brim of fun songs and fantastic dance numbers, which made me miss musical theatre and feel down right lazy.
also the title of this post would make a great name for a blog...
post soon with new coat pictures! And I'm sure many many pictures of Mia and I, we like to photo shoot, not gonna lie.

Little bit of a shopping adventure...

So my lovely sister in law is visiting from Vancouver for the weekend and we got up to a little too much shopping today, as well as yesterday!

So today Lanvin for H&M was released today, it was madness! But beautiful madness! It was crazy, people were trying things on everywhere and grabbing things and it wall like " last one of this, who wants it" OMG!
I got a great clutch, a beautiful lipstick and two fabric shopping bags.

Then there was Henri Bendel, also in the Beverly Center, where I finally got some beautiful Rain Boots!! So now I can survive Vancouver weather!

And then onto The Grove, where the Saturday Parking was dreadful.
First to the American Girl store to buy some fancy Christmas gifts! (and we spent so much that we got free parking for all day... yes it's that bad)

Then to Nordstrom to get fuzzy socks with faux fur on top to wear in the rubber boots!

Then to JCrew and Anthropologie where I got some more Xmas gifts and a cute bracelet at JCrew where they had an amazing sale.

....Then In-n-Out maybe happened for dinner....

So the walk from the car to the apartment was pretty epic, lots and lots of heavy bags! As soon as we got in the doors the bags hit the floor and they take up most of it, in my small apartment!

Yesterday we went to this mall called Westfield in Century City, where they have a great store called Madewell, which I have to go back and check out again, it's related to JCrew. And there also was a JCrew there, where I got my dad some fab socks for Xmas.

They also have Betsey Johnson, one of my favorites!

And they had a great food court where I had BahaFresh (sp?) anyway to-go Mexican food which is actually yummy and healthy ish.


Pictures to come of all the fun new stuff!

Tomorrow night I think I'm going to finally see HP 7 part 1. ya I'm more than a little excited about that!
